Online Master of Arts Programs

You can make a difference through your career change. Become a teacher. ACE’s Master of Arts programs in Elementary Teaching and Secondary Teaching may be your path to initial elementary or secondary teacher certification.

Both programs offer convenient online coursework, a 10-week student teaching experience and a capstone project for individuals with a bachelor’s degree in certain fields outside of education.

Earn a Master of Arts in Teaching with a small number of courses in addition to the Transition to Teaching Certificate (T2T) plans of study. Both the M.A.T. and T2T programs lead to initial teacher licensure in Indiana.

"I worked for twenty years in the military and emerged seeking a new career in which I could have a similar impact. My degree from ACE helped me to become the best teacher I could be."

Reginald Watts, M.Ed. Curriculum and Instruction, 2011

A note about licensure

The M.A.T. and T2T programs are approved by the Indiana Department of Education for an initial teacher license. In addition to completion of the M.A.T. or T2T, Indiana has other teacher licensing requirements, including but not limited to CPR training and suicide prevention training. All graduates must first obtain an initial teaching license in Indiana before applying for a teacher license in their own state. However, states may have additional licensure requirements. Students are solely responsible for determining whether they are eligible for initial licensure in the state in which they intend to teach. It is vitally important that students know before enrolling and be continually aware of their own state licensure requirements.
